Trainers worth £250,000 were stolen during a burglary in Heywood.
Overnight between 12 and 13 February, unknown offenders broke into a vacant warehouse in an industrial unit off Pilsworth Road.
They then removed bricks from an internal wall in order to steal approximately 2000 boxes of trainers from an adjoining warehouse.
The trainers, by ‘Creative Recreation’ are in both black and white and of various sizes.
PC Rob Dawson, said: “This was a well organised and executed burglary that has resulted in considerable stock being stolen.
“If anyone has overheard people talking about this theft, either beforehand or afterwards, I am keen to hear from you.
“Likewise, if anyone knows where the items are being stored or sold from, please contact us in complete confidence.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 101, or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
